About The Book

Since its publication in 1996 George Saunders’s debut collection has grown in esteem from a cherished cult classic to a masterpiece of the form inspiring an entire generation of writers along the way. In six stories and a novella Saunders hatches an unforgettable cast of characters each struggling to survive in an increasingly haywire world. With a new introduction by Joshua Ferris and a new author’s note by Saunders himself this edition is essential reading for those seeking to discover or revisit a virtuosic disturbingly prescient voice.   Praise for George Saunders and CivilWarLand in Bad Decline   “It’s no exaggeration to say that short story master George Saunders helped change the trajectory of American fiction.”—The Wall Street Journal   “Saunders’s satiric vision of America is dark and demented; it’s also ferocious and very funny.”—Michiko Kakutani The New York Times   “George Saunders is a writer of arresting brilliance and originality with a sure sense of his material and apparently inexhaustible resources of voice. [CivilWarLand in Bad Decline] is scary hilarious and unforgettable.”—Tobias Wolff   “Saunders makes the all-but-impossible look effortless.”—Jonathan Franzen   “Not since Twain has America produced a satirist this funny.”—Zadie Smith   “An astoundingly tuned voice—graceful dark authentic and funny—telling just the kinds of stories we need to get us through these times.”—Thomas Pynchon
